About Yaxell YO-U 101-layered Damascus Santoku Knife, 7
The Santoku Knife works exceptionally well on vegetables, proteins, and fruit for slicing, dicing, and chopping. The slight belly curve enables the cook to rock the blade slightly. An example of unsurpassed quality and workmanship is offered here with this Santoku knife. The blade core is constructed of Japanese SG2 Micro Carbide Powder stainless steel and enveloped by 101 layers combined with alternating soft and hard stainless steel. Corrosion resistant powdered carbon steel has an unprecedented 63 Rockwell hardness. Powdered steel is used because it ensures a high degree of purity and strength. The resulting blade is extremely hard, ensuring an exceptionally sharp cutting edge. The surface impresses a fascinating Damascus design pattern. The handle is made of resin and linen Canvas Micarta with stainless steel rivets. Handle and blade are then hand polished to a mirror finish, combining the best of advanced technology with unsurpassed Japanese blade knowledge and expertise handed down from generation to generation for centuries. Handcrafted in Japan. Dishwasher safe. Manufacturer recommends sharpening with the Yaxell Gou Sharp Pro knife sharpener, a Japanese water stone, or a diamond steel honed for sharpening.
